It has been several years since I cycled a tank. It's a 30 gallon tank with about 15 gallons on water I have sand over organic potting soil substrate with a large piece of drift wood and about 2 dozen elodea plants.

I put half of a U-12 shrimp in about 10 days ago. I tested true ammonia level today. It is 8.0 ppm. My question is, should I remove the shrimp now, or leave it in until the cycle is complete?

Thanks for your help.

    with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
